Show Notes
In this solo episode of The JD Denham Podcast, JD Denham comes in hot with zero filter and zero apology. Something he saw in society broke his patience and he sat down in front of the mic and let it rip. This one is a straight up rallying cry for men to stand back up and lead.
JD opens with what sent him over the edge: women publicly cheering for a mother who killed her children. Not the politics around it, not the sides, the children. He makes the case that what we are watching in society is a direct result of men going passive, weak, and overweight, abdicating leadership at home, in church, and in the culture. He brings up COVID as exhibit A: the moment when men had a chance to stand on their integrity and most of them folded.
He does not let pastors off the hook either. If you closed your church when people needed it most, JD has something to say to you directly.
Then he gets personal. From driving his two-year-old daughter to the dope man in the middle of the night while strung out, to waking up in a hospital bed four times, to 16 years sober and building companies, raising sons who want to lift weights with dad every morning. He lays it all out to show you that change is possible and then tells you exactly what it looks like: get in the gym, read your Bible, get sober, open a business, lead your family, raise kids of integrity.
This podcast is not for everybody. JD knows it and does not care. It is for the man who is ready to hear the truth.
